"The staff are very nice and welcoming, unfortunately I found lots hair in the bathroom which I believe it shouldn’t happen. Also the hotel is a bit outdated, but the location is very good. "
"Great value and location for the price. A bit rustic and could use some renovation for the closets and paint for the hallway walls, but overall extremely clean and pleasant. Breakfast was very good."

"Perfect place for us. It was very clean, very quiet and well-stocked with all the implements we needed. We really felt at home and happy at the house. Just a ten minute walk to the bus station and supermarkets and a little further to the beach. "
"No problems, though be aware there is no reception of any sort. Parking is hit or miss, be prepared to park a few hundred metres away. One needs to be able to negotiate stairs (may be an issue to some)."
"We were very pleased with out stay. The apartment is about as close as you can get to the beach of Machico without being on it. Dozens of cafes/restaurants in walking distance, two grocery stores as well! The apartment is small but the location helps make up for it. All amenities were as described and we didn't feel like we were missing anything. Parking is difficult during the day if you have a car. I would recommend parking about two blocks north in a parking lot by the police station (free). Past 1800 hours or so it becomes easy to park on the street near the apartment. Overall very happy and would recommend!"
